Let’s go through each box one by one to figure out what we can infer.
---
Box 1 (Already done):
The dog is wagging his tail → Inference: The dog is happy.
✔ This makes sense — dogs usually wag their tails when they’re excited or happy.
---
Box 2:
Kate’s ice cream is melting.
What does that tell us? Ice cream melts when it’s warm. So, if her ice cream is melting, it must be hot outside or she’s holding it in a warm place.
→ We can infer:
It is hot outside.
---
Box 3:
Megan wants to know how much oranges cost.
She’s standing at a fruit stand with oranges on display. If someone asks about the price of something at a store or stand, they probably want to buy it.
→ We can infer:
Megan wants to buy oranges.
---
Box 4:
Jeff works in the kitchen.
He’s wearing a chef’s hat and holding a pan. People who work in kitchens and wear chef hats are usually cooks or chefs.
→ We can infer:
Jeff is a cook.
---
All answers make logical sense based on the pictures and sentences.
Final Answer:
Kate’s ice cream is melting. → It is hot outside.
Megan wants to know how much oranges cost. → Megan wants to buy oranges.
Jeff works in the kitchen. → Jeff is a cook.
